Spring at last

So nice to run in the warm sunshine today after 7 weeks of rain, cold, snow and frost.

W8R1 was a pleasure and I had to stop myself from smiling as I ran. Well it was a jog if I am honest 😊

To all of you in weeks 1,2,3,4,5,6 and 7 you can so do this too.

(Just one slight problem today that without my warm hat over my ears my earphones kept falling out. Any suggestions welcome πŸ™‚)

Happy springtime 🌻

Sounds a lovely run!

Some folk use a buff /headband to keep earphones in so might be worth a try.

Lovely!

I'm doing W8 R1 today or tomorrow and looking forward to it. Smile away! You've earned it. We're so close to the finish line.

It’s always nice to get into a new week isn’t it.

All the runs are the same this week so we know what to expect.

All the best with your run , hope the sun shines for you 🌞

What a lovely picture and happy report :) I'll be running tonight, although it'll be dark by the time I'm going out, sadly, even with the clock change. Another few weeks and it'll be light for my evening running though...

Keep smiling , it helps make the run easier 😁. What a beautiful picture. It made me smile.

I use a buff to help keep my ear buds in when I get to leave my hat behind. It keeps the ear buds in and the sweat outta my eyes in the warmer runs.
